2,6-Diaminonebularines

The present invention relates to novel N.sup.2 -substituted phenyl-2,6-diaminonebularines having excellent pharmacological action. More particularly, this invention relates to compounds of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy and R.sup.2 is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy, or their acid addition salts, which have an excellent coronary vasodilator action.
It is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,936,439 that compounds of the general formula ##STR3## wherein R is a phenyl or cyclohexyl group which may be substituted by halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy and their acid addition salts are of use as coronary vasodilators and platelet aggregation inhibitors.
The present inventors unexpectedly found that in the scope of the N.sup.2 -substituted phenyl-2,6-diaminonebularines belonging to the formula (II), meta-substituted phenyl compounds among mono-substituted phenyl compounds, and meta- and para-di-substituted phenyl compounds among di-substituted phenyl compounds, have specifically stronger coronary vasodilator action than corresponding compounds substituted in other positions. These N.sup.2 -(meta-mono-substituted or meta- and para-di-substituted phenyl)-2,6-diaminonebularines are naturally encompassed by the formula (II) but not described concretely in the above-mentioned U.S. Patent. The said new finding was followed by further studies, which have resulted in the present invention.
Thus, the principal object of the present invention is to provide the novel compounds (I) and their acid addition salts which show excellent coronary vasodilator action, and another object is to provide a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more of these compounds. Other objects will be made clear from the description and claims presented hereinafter.
Referring to the formula (I), the halogen for R.sup.1 or R.sup.2 may be example be chlorine, bromine or fluorine. The lower alkyl as R.sup.1, R.sup.2 may be straight-chain or branched and may for example be methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, t-butyl or hexyl. The lower alkyls of up to 4 carbon atoms are particularly advantageous. The lower alkoxy for R.sup.1, R.sup.2 may be straight-chain or branched and may for example be methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, n-butoxy, t-butoxy or hexoxy. The lower alkoxys of up to 4 carbon atoms are particularly preferred. The substituents R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be the same or different from each other.
The compounds (I) and salts thereof can be produced by, for example, any of the following Processes A, B and C.
Process A
A 2-halogenoadenosine is reacted with an amine of the formula ##STR4## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the same meanings as respectively defined hereinbefore to yield compound (I).
The 2-halogenoadenosine may for example be 2-fluoroadenosine, 2-chloroadenosine or 2-bromoadenosine.
This reaction may be carried out using about 1 to 10 moles of amine (III) to each mole of 2-halogenoadenosine. The reaction proceeds fast enough at elevated temperatures, from about 50.degree. to 200.degree. C. and, particularly, from about 110.degree. to 150.degree. C. The reaction may optionally be conducted in an inert organic solvent such as methyl-cellosolve or dioxane and, also, optionally in the presence of an acid acceptor such as an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide (e.g. sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, etc.), an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate (e.g. sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, barium carbonate, etc.), organic acid salts of alkali metals or alkaline earth metals (e.g. sodium acetate, potassium acetate, etc.) (Refer to U.S. Pat. No. 3,936,439).
Process B
A compound of the formula ##STR5## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the same meaning as defined hereinbefore; R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 each represents a hydroxyl group which may be protected and A is a reactive group which is able to react with ammonia to yield an amino group, is reacted with ammonia. If necessary, the reaction product is further subjected to a treatment for removal of the protective groups. In this manner, compound (I) is obtained.
Referring to the above formula (IV), the protective groups for hydroxyls R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 may for example be carboxylic acid-derived acyl groups which may be aliphatic, aromatic, heterocyclic, saturated or unsaturated (e.g. acetyl, propionyl, caproyl, palmitoyl, benzoyl, toluoyl, furoyl, etc.); nitro; sulfonyl; isopropylidene; alkoxyalkylidene and so forth. Particularly advantageous are those acyl groups derived from aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acids containing up to 7 carbon atoms.
R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 may all be protected hydroxyls or only some of them, e.g. R.sup.3 and R.sup.4, may be protected. Or, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 may all be unprotected hydroxyls.
These hydroxyl-protecting groups normally detach themselves as the compound (IV) undergoes reaction with ammonia. However, in respect of those protective groups which are not ready to be detached in the course of said reaction with ammonia, such as benzoyl, toluoyl, nitro, sulfonyl, isopropylidene, etc., they may be easily removed by procedures known per se, for example by treatment with an alkali metal alkoxide in the case of benzoyl or toluoyl, by catalytic reduction in the case of nitro, or by treatment with an acid (e.g. formic acid, acetic acid or hydrochloric acid) in the case of isopropylidene.
To reactive group A may be any group that is able to react with ammonia to give an amino group. Thus, for example, it may conveniently be halogen such as chlorine, bromine or iodine, or a group of the formula --SO.sub.n R.sup.10 (where R.sup.10 is hydrogen, alkyl or aralkyl; n is 0, 1 or 2) such as mercapto, alkylmercapto, aralkylmercapto, alkylsulfine, alkylsulfone, etc.
In reacting the compound of the formula (IV) with ammonia in Process B, it is generally preferable to dissolve ammonia in a solvent and to use it in an amount not less than equimolar, preferably about 2 to 3 molar equivalents with respect to compound (IV). The solvent may for example be a lower alcohol (e.g. methanol or ethanol), methylcellosolve or water or a mixture thereof. Generally this reaction proceeds satisfactorily at an elevated temperature of about 100.degree. to 200.degree. C. and it is particularly desirable to heat the reaction system to the above-mentioned temperature in a gas-tight reactor. The starting compound (IV) can be prepared by the procedure disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,936,439 mentioned hereinbefore or a modification thereof.
Process C
A compound of the formula ##STR6## wherein R.sup.6, R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 each is a hydroxyl group which may be protected is reacted with a compound of the formula ##STR7## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each has the same meaning as defined hereinbefore and R.sup.9 is hydrogen or a group of the formula ##STR8## and the reaction product is subjected, if necessary, to a de-protecting treatment to obtain a compound (I).
Referring to the above formula (V), protective groups for the protected hydroxyls R.sup.6, R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 may be any of the groups mentioned in connection with R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5, propionyl being the most advantageous. R.sup.6, R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 may all be protected hydroxyls or only some of them, e.g. R.sup.6 and R.sup.7, may be protected. Or all of R.sup.6, R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 may be free hydroxyl groups. Although these hydroxyl-protecting groups generally detach themselves as compound (V) undergoes reaction with compound (VI), they can be easily removed by procedures known per se, for example by treatment with a base (aqueous ammonia or alkali metal alkoxide) in the case of carboxylic acid-derived acyl groups, by catalytic reduction in the case of nitro, or by treatment with an acid (e.g., formic acid, acetic or hydrochloric acid) in the case of isopropylidene.
Referring to the formula (VI), R.sup.9 means either hydrogen or a group represented by ##STR9## Thus, this formula encompasses both cyanamides and carbodiimides. These cyanamides can be easily prepared, for example by the procedure described in Berichte der Deutschen Chemischen Gesellschaft 18, 3217-3234(1885) or a modification thereof, while the carbodiimides can be easily prepared, for example by the procedure described in Journal of Organic Chemistry 32, 2895(1967) or a modification thereof.
In reacting compound (V) with compound (VI) in Process C, it is generally desirable to employ at least an equimolar amount, preferably about 2 to 5 molar equivalents, of compound (VI) with respect to compound (V). Generally, this reaction is preferably conducted in the presence of a base. The base may for example be ammonia, a primary to tertiary amine (which is preferably a low-boiling amine, inclusive of a cyclic amine, e.g. n-propylamine, isopropylamine, n-butylamine, triethylamine, pyridine, picoline, 2,6-lutidine, etc.), a sodium or potassium alkoxide (e.g. sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, sodium methoxyethoxide, potassium tert.-butoxide, etc.) or the like, ammonia being the most advantageous. Normally such a base is preferably used in a proportion of about 10 to 100 molar equivalents with respect to compound (V). Generally this reaction is desirably conducted in a solvent. The solvent may be any organic solvent that will not interfere with the contemplated reaction. Thus, for example, lower alkanols (e.g. methanol, ethanol, propanol, etc.), tetrahydrofuran, dioxane or dimethylformamide, as well as mixtures thereof, may be advantageously employed. Generally this reaction proceeds satisfactorily at elevated temperatures of about 100.degree. to 200.degree. C., and is preferably conducted in a gas-tight reactor.
When the resultant product compound still carries protective groups on its hydroxyl functions, such protective groups can be easily removed by a de-protecting treatment which has hereinbefore been described. By the above procedure there is obtained a compound of the formula (I).
The above-mentioned starting compound (V) may, for instance, be produced in good yield from 5-amino-1-.beta.-D-ribofuranosylimidazole-4-carboxamide, which is a readily available, inexpensive fermentation product, in two or three steps by the method disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,450,693 or a modification thereof.
The N.sup.2 -substituted phenyl-2,6-diaminonebularine (I) thus produced can be easily separated from the reaction mixture by procedures known per se. For example, the excess reactants and solvent are first distilled off from the reaction mixture and the residue is washed with a lower alkanol or the like and recrystallized from water or a lower alkanol or a mixture thereof, whereby compound (I) is obtained in pure form. This compound (I) can also be isolated in the form of a physiologically acceptable acid addition salt i.e. inorganic acid salt (e.g. hydrochloride, sulfate, nitrate or phosphate) or organic acid salt (e.g. acetate, propionate, citrate or tartrate) by treatments known per se.
The N.sup.2 -substituted phenyl-2,6-diaminonebularines (I) and salts thereof, which are provided by this invention, are novel compounds which have not been described in any literature reference and have excellent coronary vasodilator action, besides being low in toxicity. Therefore, these compounds are of value as drugs for the treatment of ischemic heart diseases such as coronary insufficiency, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and the like in mammalian animals (e.g. man; pet animals such as dog and cat, and laboratory animals such as rat and mouse). When the compound of this invention is used for such medicinal purposes, it can be orally or parenterally administered as such or in combination with appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, vehicles or diluents, in such dosage forms as powders, granules, tablets, capsules, injections, etc. While the proper dosage depends on such factors as, for example, the disease to be managed and the route of administration, coronary insufficiency in an adult human, for instance may be effectively treated with about 3 to 30 mg./day by the oral route or about 0.1 to 2.0 mg./day by the intravenous route.

The heart was perfused with the blood led from the fermoral artery to the left coronary arterial circumfles through a polyethylene catheter and the coronary blood flow was measured with an electromagnetic flowmeter interposed in the extracorporeal circuit.
The test compound as a 1 .mu.g./ml. solution in physiological saline, was directly administered into the coronary artery via the polyethylene catheter at the dosage of 0.1 .mu.g./dog, and at timed intervals of 30 seconds, one minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes and 5 minutes after the dosing, the increase in coronary blood flow was measured. The results are set forth in Table 3.
The percent increases in coronary blood flow were computed by means of the following equation ##EQU1##
